Lucien was still trying to wrap her head around after that last confession. Her head seemed completely blank after what had happened on the balcony.
'I did confess, right?' She was a little confused.
The sky was no longer bright but dark. Millions of stars had been popping all around, and it looked more enchanting than any other night. There was the sound of creaking insects, but that was no longer heard by her.
Lucien had her eyes wide open, and it had been for the last hour. She lay on the bed, unable to sleep. Even when she tries to close her eyes, she ends up feeling wide awake.
Her mind keeps on playing, remembering what had happened today. She had actually blurted out that she wanted to stay with him in this world. She felt embarrassed by the thought of her crying. However, the most embarrassing part was when Efthalia pulled her for an embrace. And she cried a lot.
